New Member Update!

After a very successful recruitment, The New Member Educator planned an amazing Bid Day; we went to Denver to play laser tag! It was a great night and there was so much enthusiasm even after the long week! The night of Bid Day, The Assistant New Member Educator selected "dolphins" for the new baby Deltas. Dolphins are a kind of pre big to get the new girls comfortable and more associated with the house. After Bid Day, the members do "dolphin drops" in which they decorate the new member's home door with a painted and glittery dolphin and sometimes candy. Its a fun welcome to the house!

After getting to know the new members, the Assistant New Member Educator carefully paired the new members with a Big! Three days before revelation, the Bigs give the Littles gifts and clues. Each day the Little is given a more significant gift, and on the third day, they give a couple of clues to get the girls really excited to find out who their Big is! This Sunday we will be having our Big/Little revelation. The revelation will consist of the Big buying two costumes (one for them, one for their little). The Bigs will then spread out throughout the streets surrounding the house (on the "University Hill", Beach Park, and around Broadway). The LIttle will then put on the costume and find their Big! Afterwards they can go out to dinner or dessert! We are SO excited for our new members!

Delta Love,

The New Member Education Team
